The present invention is characterized by comprising: finding information creation means for creating finding information based on the findings.

(Operation) In the present invention, the dictionary information and each window of the finding format to which this dictionary information is copied are simultaneously displayed on the display means.

Then, display position coordinate information of the displayed dictionary information is specified by a coordinate data input means constituted by a mouse or the like, and a desired display position on the finding format is specified by a mouse or the like.

Then, the designated dictionary information is cut and pasted at the display position on the finding format.

In this way, the dictionary information is sequentially pasted onto the finding format, and finding information is easily created.

(Embodiment) FIG. 1 shows the overall configuration of an embodiment to which the present invention is applied. FIG. 2 is a block diagram of the main components of this embodiment.

As shown in FIG. 1, this embodiment device has the following features:
It is configured with the CPU 1 as the control center, and includes a magnetic disk 2 storing dictionary information and finding information, a bitmap compatible CRT 3 that can simultaneously display each window of dictionary information and finding format, and a mouse 4 constituting coordinate information input means. , and a card reader 5 that reads the information content in the ID card possessed by each patient.

Functionally, the magnetic disk 2 includes a dictionary information storage circuit 21 and a finding information storage circuit 22, as shown in FIG.

In the dictionary information storage circuit 21, dictionary information is registered in a hierarchical structure by medical department, by disease site, by doctor, or the like. Note that the dictionary information stored in this dictionary information storage circuit 21 may be not only words but also sentences, and may also be Japanese, Chinese, German, Latin, or the like.
Further, the dictionary information in this circuit is sorted, extracted, and displayed in descending order of frequency of use by a learning function, which will be described later.

The finding information storage circuit 22 stores created finding information.

The CPU 1 includes a control circuit 11, a dictionary information management circuit 12 that manages dictionary information in a dictionary information storage circuit 21, and a dictionary information temporary storage that temporarily stores dictionary information read from the dictionary information storage circuit 21. Circuit 13 and dictionary information temporary storage circuit 13
A display storage circuit 14 simultaneously stores the dictionary information stored in the memory and the finding format read from the card reader 5, and creates a display screen for the bitmap compatible CRT 3, , a cursor position control circuit 15 that supplies Y coordinate information to the control circuit 11;
It is equipped with a temporary editing memory circuit 16 used to create finding information on the CRT 3, and a finding information temporary storage circuit 17 that temporarily stores the created finding information. The finding information obtained is stored in a finding information storage circuit 22 within the magnetic disk 2.

The dictionary information management circuit 12 includes the dictionary information storage circuit 2
1 and the dictionary information temporary storage circuit 13,
It has a function to sort dictionary information in order of frequency of use.

The mouse 4 in this embodiment is designated with push buttons for a copy command and a paste (PASTE) command.

The copy command push button is used to transfer the dictionary information on the CRT screen indicated by the cursor from the dictionary information storage circuit 21 to the dictionary information temporary storage circuit 13.

Further, the paste command push button is used when cutting and pasting the dictionary information stored in the dictionary information temporary storage circuit 13 to a desired position in the finding input window.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be explained with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

When the patient's ID card is inserted into the card reader 5, the information in the card is read (step 100). This will cause the device to start up and
A dictionary information window and a finding input window are displayed simultaneously on the CRT 3 (step 101). In this state, the window for inputting findings is active and input is possible.

Next, use the mouse 4 to move the cursor and select desired dictionary information from within the dictionary window.
The selected dictionary information is stored in the dictionary information temporary storage circuit 13.
is stored in As a result, the selected window becomes active and dictionary information can be referenced (steps 102 and 103). Note that in the dictionary window, the word strings (or sentence strings) are always sorted in order of frequency of use by the learning function described above. Therefore, when referring to words that are used less frequently, the mouse 4 may be used to scroll the dictionary information within the dictionary window to display the desired dictionary information.

Next, when selecting a word to be referred to in the selected dictionary window, the user uses the mouse 4 to move the cursor over the word and presses the mouse button. By this operation, the X, Y coordinate information is supplied to the control circuit 11 via the cursor position control circuit 15, and the word or sentence is displayed in reverse video (steps 104, 105).

In this state, when the copy command button is pressed, the word is cut out and stored in the temporary editing memory circuit 16 (steps 106, 107).

Next, move the cursor to a desired position using the mouse 4 to activate the finding input window (steps 108, 119), and then press the paste command button (step 110). The word is displayed at the cursor position in the findings window (step 111).

In this way, the dictionary information such as words and documents is cut out from within the dictionary window and pasted at a desired position within the finding input window, thereby completing the finding creation work.

When the operation is completed, the created finding information is stored from the finding information temporary storage circuit 14 to the finding information storage circuit 22 (step 113).

Although the mouse 4 is used as the coordinate data input means in this embodiment, an input device such as a light pen may also be used.
